We stayed at this hotel along with other family members. We had four rooms total. We were looking for a hotel relatively close to Kings Island that is clean, has free breakfast, and has a pool. This one fit the bill. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good but always seemed to have empty trays in the buffet. You had to wait for things at times. The kids still loved it. We were able to request a mini fridge in the rooms with no problem. The pool was small but clean. The hot tub was out of order. They only give you 3 towels and 3 wash clothes per room but were always quick to give more when asked.

Room Tip: Ask for room away from parking lot. They have a bird sound machine to keep birds from making nests...

I stayed here for business recently. The hotel itself felt like an older building and was not as updated as other Holiday Inns. I think it was as clean as it could be considering the age. The location is a bit messy right now due to construction in the surrounding area. There was no onsite exercise room. The staff were exceptionally nice.

We've stayed at several Holiday Inn Express hotels in recent years. Like any franchise you come to expect a certain level of accomodations. This HIX was a bit subpar in my opinion. Our two night stay left me knowing I would not return to this hotel. Things in the hotel have obviously been updated recently, but they did the obvious part is because it was done so poorly in some cases. We've come to expect a basic but clean room with HIX. Our room looked like it hadn't been dusted in weeks and the carpeting was poorly vaccuumed. The in-room hair dryer made noises I'd never heard a hair dryer make before. The hot tub was broken and we never used the small pool. The breakfast area was a mess both mornings and poorly stocked. Just not the service we'd come to expect with a HIX. There is plenty of other hotels right in the area and also some shopping and restaurants (basics like Target, Lowe's, Olive Garden, Applebees, etc.). The room is equiped with a nice size refridgerator and microwave.

I booked a room online for me and 3 friends for a shopping trip. When we arrived, the clerk gave us the key and followed us to the room. He knocked on the door and when he saw it was occupied, he informed us it had been overbooked and the room was already taken. We went back to the desk, and told us the only room available with 2 beds was smoking. We went to see it, but there was an odor and we did not want a smoking room due to allergies and one person was pregnant. Went back to the desk, told us the only other available was a king bed w/couch. We went to the room, but it was just one full bed and no couch. Went back to the desk and asked to transfer to another hotel. Sent us to the Drury Inn at no extra charge. It was very nice, clean, and very professional staff.

A few friends and I went to a conference in monroe ohio, and this was one of the conference hotels to choose from. I was initially nervous, and didn't know what to expect. We were glad we chose this hotel. The staff was friendly and rooms were clean. I was so glad to walk into a very clean bathroom. Our stay was very comfortable (not luxury but nice). Our location was great! We were surrounded by multiple restaurants and shopping centers (Cracker Barrel, Olive Garden, Applebees, Walmart, Target and many more). My only complaint would be that the pillows were way to soft (mushy). Overall we had a nice stay and I would return if I came back to the area.

I stayed here in mid June 2010 for several days on a business trip to AK Steel. The hotel even offers a discounted rate for contractors there. Given the size of the facility, I would imagine a good percentage of business travelers might be doing the same. Its also very close to the facility, just a couple of miles away the south east entrance. Breakfast is served 6:30 to 9:30 and is good (bacon, eggs, sausage gravy, fruit, pastries, juice and milk). The pool is on the first floor inside, with a hot tub. they are open till midnight, with the last hour adults only. My room was clean, AC cold, good table with outlet for laptop charging. No fridge or microwave in room 223. Access is good from the parking lot from either end or the lobby in the middle. the local road is a little tricky, requiring you to around by turning off 122 and taking 3 lefts to get to the hotel. If you turn right out of the parking lot, you can't get back to 122 easily, just go back left around. I would happily stay here again.

Staff was excellent at this well kept property. Inside pool clean and inviting. Rate of $81 for two bed room was an excellent buy. This is 3 story hotel with elevator. There is considerable construction at this time on I-75 and access roads at this Middletown location but the congestion is managable. Cracker Barrel,Olive Garden,Lone Star, Wendy's very close to hotel. Kroger's grocery across street. Hotel breakfast from 6:30-9:30 was well stocked with good service. Front desk service is really excellent with caring helpful attitude. Coffee and tea available all day in breakfast area. This is not a new property but it is very clean and exceptionally managed. For shoppers the Cincy Premium 100 store outlet center is on I-75 at exit 29 at Monroe just a few miles from the hotel. Hotel Business center with free computer and printer working and convenient.
